Chapter 1000: Perfect Core Formation
Chapter 1000: Perfect Core Formation
The Nine-Faced Star Banner, combined with the Intermediate Flying Sword Treasures of the Cavern Profound Sword Sect, the Celestial Star Sword, can form a Seventh-Rank Celestial Star Sword Formation, which was the protective formation of the Heavenly Sword Sect at the time.
Once perfected, the formation’s destructive power increases exponentially. It can easily keep True Monarchs at bay and effortlessly slay any Core Formation cultivators who dare to intrude.
"Now I need to figure out how to get that Celestial Star Sword."
"The Sword Sect cultivates two Star Shifting Sun Sword Grasses. One of them has been growing for quite some years, so the possibility of it blossoming into a Celestial Star Sword is not negligible."
"If that doesn’t work, I’ll improve a couple more types of sword grasses and use my contributions to request one from the sect."
Lu Xuan thought to himself.
He sent a message to the Wood Daoist, instructing the guild to send someone to collect the fifteen Star Fruits.
He went to inspect the spirit fields, where the Ice Firefly Grass in the three large plots had all matured.
Out of a habit from his previous life, he decided to save them all for a series of draws, hoping to get more substantial rewards.
He left twenty plants for seedlings and harvested the rest, more than eighty in total.
Over eighty white light orbs emerged one after another, flickering in the spirit fields.
Lu Xuan’s lips curved upward, and with a flash, he shattered each orb simultaneously.
Countless tiny light points converged into slender rivers of light, flowing into Lu Xuan’s body.
Thoughts raced through his mind.
[Harvested one Third-Rank Ice Firefly Grass, received a three-year cultivation reward.]
[Harvested one Third-Rank Ice Firefly Grass, received a Fourth-Rank Ice Marrow Spirit Brew formula experience pack.]
[Harvested...]
As the thoughts vanished, various treasures quietly appeared before him.
He couldn’t spare the time to inspect them just yet.
A vast amount of spiritual energy surged into his meridians, like a river breaking its banks.
He activated the Divine Dawn True Method, absorbing the surging spiritual energy like a whale drinking water, converting it into pale green spiritual droplets that fell into his dantian’s sea of qi, nourishing the golden, bright core pill that spun rapidly.
"Eighty-plus light orbs, sixteen of which were cultivation rewards. After absorbing them all, my cultivation increased by over fifty years."
"With my current upper-middle talent, fifty years of cultivation will significantly boost my strength."
"Now, I’m just one step away from perfect Core Formation."
Lu Xuan felt the rich spiritual liquid filling his dantian and sighed softly.
He then turned his attention to the other treasures.
Besides the large amount of Ice Marrow Spirit Brew experience packs that flooded his mind, there were also several Fourth-Rank Ice Soul Pills and Fourth-Rank Ice Marrow Spirit Brews.
"Even if I put these in the general store, they can still fetch a good number of spirit stones."
Lu Xuan then inspected the other spirit plants in the fields.
Three Essence Ginsengs were in the rapid maturation stage, surrounded by dense spiritual energy, like clouds of mist enveloping them, indicating their high spiritual energy content.
"These Fifth-Rank Essence Ginsengs have been growing for some years, but they still need some time to fully mature."
"Should I force one to mature? If I can get a light orb with a cultivation reward, I might just break through to perfect Core Formation."
The more he thought about it, the more excited he became. A small emerald flask jumped out of his Glutton Worm pouch.
After using up most of the pure plant spiritual energy to mature the Earth Palace, the Divine Wood Green Flask had been replenished over the past four to five years and now held more than half a bottle.
With a mental command, strands of pure plant spiritual energy spurted out of the flask mouth, pouring into one of the Essence Ginsengs.
As more plant spiritual energy was fed into it, the Essence Ginseng’s vitality grew stronger, radiating a vigorous upward force.
Under Lu Xuan’s focused mind, the semi-transparent progress bar below the spirit plant filled up almost visibly.
After a moment, the spiritual essence in the Green Spirit Flask had been depleted by more than a third, but the Primordial Spirit Ginseng was finally ripe.
"The Primordial Spirit Ginseng is a fifth-grade spiritual plant, and after being cultivated for many years, it naturally consumes much less plant essence than the Earth Palace does."
"Light orb, light orb, I spent a lot to get you this time. You better give me a cultivation reward to make it worthwhile."
Lu Xuan silently wished in his heart.
He carefully picked the ginseng, which was emitting a rich spiritual aura, and held his breath, eagerly watching the white light orb that gradually appeared.
He reached out and gently touched the surface of the light orb. Instantly, it silently shattered, transforming into a myriad of tiny light points that rose into the sky.
Soon, all the light points condensed into a thin, long river of light, swiftly merging into Lu Xuan's body.
The thought he had anticipated appeared in his mind.
[Harvested one fifth-grade Primordial Spirit Ginseng, received a fifty-year cultivation reward.]
The thought vanished, and a surge of spiritual power flooded into Lu Xuan's limbs and body.
He activated his cultivation technique, rapidly absorbing the newly appeared spiritual power, converting it into droplets of light green spiritual liquid that flowed into his dantian.
The golden pill, stimulated by the influx, began to pulsate, with the deep green spiritual fire inside flickering wildly. Tiny spiritual crystals attached to the pill, rapidly melting under the refining of the spiritual fire, fusing with the pill.
After all the spiritual power was absorbed, the golden pill gave a sudden leap, releasing a powerful surge of spiritual energy as it rotated.
Lu Xuan felt it.
"Completed the Core Formation stage."
"The next step is to accumulate spiritual power, refine my divine soul and physical body, and seek the opportunity to break through to the Nascent Soul stage."
He muttered to himself.
"About a hundred and twenty years, from a minor Qi Practitioner struggling to survive, to a fully completed Core Formation cultivator, and even the Nascent Soul stage seems within reach."
"Besides the little help from the light points, it wouldn't have been possible without my own hard work."
He thought with a bit of shameless pride.
When he was that minor Qi Practitioner in Linyang Market, struggling to stay alive, he could never have imagined reaching the fully completed Core Formation stage.
"Perhaps the best decision I ever made was borrowing some spirit stones from Big Brother Zhang to start cultivating the Spirit Glow Grass."
The white light orb that appeared after the Spirit Glow Grass matured completely changed the course of Lu Xuan's life.
"At the market, I worried every day about how to survive, and the head of the Wang family, who controlled the market, was someone I could only look up to."
"Now, not only do I have a fully completed Core Formation stage, but I am also an inner disciple of the Cave Profundity Sword Sect, a guest of the Hailou Commerce Association, and proficient in spiritual plants, alchemy, spirit brewing, artifact forging, and talisman making."
"I have countless spirit stones and treasures, and over a dozen seventh-grade spiritual plants. Once they mature, my power will grow at a terrifying pace."
Lu Xuan couldn't help but think.
"The path of cultivation is long, and now is not the time to be content."
"I am still a spiritual plant cultivator who isn't skilled in combat techniques."
He reminded himself.
"I still have four Primordial Spirit Ginseng left, so I don't need to worry too much about my cultivation level."
"The most urgent thing is to increase my chances of advancing to the Nascent Soul stage."
"Compared to advancing to the Core Formation stage, breaking through to the Nascent Soul stage is at least ten times more difficult."
"Fortunately, I already have the seventh-grade Yin-Yang Divine Essence Pill, which can increase my chances of advancing, and I've planted the seventh-grade Tribulation Flower. Once it matures, the possibility of obtaining a Nascent Soul treasure from the light orb is quite high."
"Among the other seventh-grade spiritual plants, there's also a good chance of obtaining corresponding treasures, so there's no need to worry too much."
Lu Xuan thought to himself.
